It just makes me sad that I cannot open this page on Safari. It will not play a single audio, yet Chrome plays it fine. So here we are, able to generate audio, video, code, do amazing things with AI, but a simple website that has text and audio is not working on the most popular laptop out there.

I understand that some applications might prefer "other browsers", but a simple page that plays audio snippets was really a disappointment.
